Thanks! I used spray paint to get the gradient. First painted the whole letter orange, then slowly layered the yellow down from the top. Took a couple tries, but overall it was surprisingly easy.
Starting with Grayscale images, I am beginning to work my way through CCpro.
Learning to import and manipulate images and what combination of bits to use for Roughing, Finishing and cleanup.

next step: STL files as input 
@fenrus
Well, I did that, and used your STL2PNG converter which I want to say “Thank You” for that.
Found an image of a 3 mast sailboat in .stl format. Did the conversion in about 3.5 minutes (188Mb .stl file)

Aluminium. 60 deg diamond tipped drag bit from gf tools (uk)
I’m not familiar with that brand and google doesn’t return anything. Would you be able to share a link please?
I think I got to them via eBay. Small family run business. It was a quick service, some instructions. They gave me these details to contact them on:

The new Pro and Shapeoko 4 Fixture plates will be released very soon as we are trying to build up some inventory before starting to sell them. They are fully modular and can be installed on the machine in a variety of ways which still allows for use of the mdf wasteboard slats. The Pro consists of nine individual plates that bolt together seamlessly and take full advantage of the new Carbide3D hybrid bed. I’m really excited about these because the install is much easier, you have more fixturing options, and the cost of entry is much much lower because with only one plate, you still have a 12"x12" area with an available 9" between mod vices. Ive probably already said too much lol

Today, still wanted by the government he survives as a machinist of fortune.
If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find him…

So does t he valve work. I have seen something similar on youtube. Not sure what it does but guess it regulates the flow?
It works well enough for a showcase.
In the picture, the flow from left to right is higher than from right to left. That’s because of the structure that creates vortices in that one direction that slow down the flow.
I just saw it on some YouTube video, so I’m not aware of any real world applications.
